Lawyer Parker and Captain Burke of Homicide return at dusk to a house near Tarrytown where Major Kenyon died in a summer house more than twenty-five years earlier. Parker has received an anonymous letter claiming the death was not suicide and pointing to a drawer in the library desk. Inside the house they recall the people who lived there, including Kenyon's wife Isabel and the household staff, and the afternoon of the death. The two men search the desk for the hidden item, which proves to be a record that may explain what happened. The guide does not reveal the outcome.

With Parker, Captain Burke, Major Jerry Kenyon, Isabel Kenyon, Joe Parker, Diane Fisk, Paul Kenyon, Kitty.
